It worked for my dog.
I have one dog that was always scratching her ears, not sure if it had anything to do with dryness or what but once we used this on her. It made a difference on first try. After a couple more applications and she was not scratching as much if at all.

Really worth the money
Really works Zoe has scratched at her ears since I put the medication in her ears. Don’t know about other people, but it drives me crazy to see her scratching and rubbing at her ears. I just feel so helpless this has saved us. Thank you.

Good Maintenance
This will not heal infected ears, but it will keep ears clean and dry if you use it before the ears are infected! We use it once a week on our dogs’ ears and they stay smelling good and healthy!

Great stuff!
After using this two days my cat already has a lot less black gunk in his ears. He does not have ear mites. I previously used another OTC ear cleaner and another RX cleaner from my vet – neither helped. I’ll continue using this daily for another five days then a few days a week for maintenance. Great stuff!

Works
Took a few treatments but OMG!!! My beagle had no horrible fear of this like the drops given for yeast given by the vet and my home cleaning solution I bought at vet and Amazon. It’s thick so it took him a minute to shake his head. Make sure you put a good dose once a day. About 3 days in, presto!!! No shaking his head all day and night.

Don’t just stop but solve the ear irritation.
We have an older golden retriever, lots of fur , which leads to ear irritation. Zymox is easy to use and definitely keeps the itch away.

check this out.
I have a Staffordshire Pitbull terrier mix, Also his ears get gunky as heck and often has a problem with them and will itch like crazy and as a low income individual I don’t have the funds to go to the vet and get a big bill and the one we go to is about a 30 min drive I don’t have a car so I have to uber or ask family members so when I first noticed his ears were getting red irritated and gunky I didn’t know what to do at the time and god am I not pouring vinegar down his ears for a home remedy oof thats nuts any way so I have had a few different ear brands to try and this one on the first use made his ears look so much less redder with the other ones they were thicker and would make his ears smell weird so If in a pinch I recommend this one and I would also look into there new dog ear wipes here on amazon too if liquids make youre pup wanna shake there head alot, it will fly a lot so have paper towels ready or a towel I deffinitly do recommend this though

Great ear cleaner (not for infections!).
When used *as directed*, Zymox is great for relieving mildly itchy, waxy ears, not caused by an infection.It’s a cleaner, not an antibiotic.It’s *not* for treating an ear infection, its primarily for getting waxy gunk out of the ear canal.It has to be applied (properly) for a few days in a row, and if you follow the instructions you should start seeing a lot of wax showing up on the exterior of the ears.A lot of wax.It’s been my experience that it works really well to alleviate itchy and waxy ears.If your dog’s ears seem to be painful or irritated after using Zymox, then you probably are looking at an infection, not just common wax, and need to see a vet.

Finally comfortable
My poor baby has been scratching his ears for a week now and the smell🤢. It’s going to be 3 more weeks until he can get in for a non emergency vet visit and I couldn’t let him suffer so I got this hoping it would help a little.I can only say wow, there was an immediate improvement. The scratching stopped on day 1 by day 3 the smell was gone and he was so much more comfortable. He slept better and I wasn’t awakened ever hour with his l him scratching his ear and shaking his head.I don’t have a video but this is a picture of him waiting for my granddaughter to come walk him totally not scratching lol.But seriously if your dog is having this same issue give it a try

No More Stinky, Itchy Ears!!
I recommend Zymox to all dog owners who deal with stinky or itchy ears. One use on my dachshund puppy and the stink was GONE!One bottle will last you forever and I love that you don’t have to clean their ears before using it. I’ve only had to use it multiple times for my Golden Retriever, but after 2-3 uses his reoccurring ear issues never came back.

The only ear drops to use
I have used about 3-5 different ear drops to keep my dogs ears clean.Over the years what I have found is that the other ones tend to make their ears red/inflamed and they shake their heads for hours after I use them.The Zymox Otic drops don’t cause any of those problems, in fact if one of the dogs is shaking their head and I use these they stop right away within 5 min.THE BEST!!!!!

Solution worked on my cat’s ear even though I bought it several years ago
I noticed my cat’s right ear was bothering her. She was scratching at it and her ear wasn’t fully upright. I checked inside, and there was brown debris in it. Her left ear was perfectly fine. I cleaned her ear out gently with moistened q-tips and a solution made with goldenseal. The next morning, it looked just as. gross as before I cleaned it and it was bothering her. My cat is on a mild steroid dose (2.5 mg prednisolone twice a week) since she’s in ‘remission’ for intestinal T-cell lymphoma. I figured that perhaps the oral steroid had created a flora imbalance over the long time she’s been on it. Don’t know for sure, but didn’t think it was caused by mites based upon her being mostly indoors except on supervised walks, and it was dead of winter anyway. So I applied this solution to her ear for 8 days in a row. About every 3 days, I cleaned her ear with Q-tips moistened with Zymox to remove debris. I did see progress over the treatment time and her ear remained debris free by the end of the 8 day treatment. I had a home vet exam visit for her previously scheduled, and the vet used an otoscope to examine her ear, and said her ear looked fine inside and was polyp-free. I bought this Zymox in 2016 for a foster cat, but it still worked for my cat years later in 2024–(way past the expiration date). Very pleased with the result.

Pay attention to the instructions. Do just what it says!!
My dog kept and continued to shake and scratch her ear. I looked in her ear but didn’t see anything without using any special tools. Mind you, she’s an indoor dog…. I would clean out her ear the best that I could without hurting her. I would see what looked like dry blood. I purchased this ear solution and did exactly what the instructions said and four days later my wife and noticed that our dog wasn’t scratching her ear any longer. I continued the treatment for the full 7 days and my dog has not scratched her ear sense day 4 of treatment.Saved me possibly hundreds of dollars from a vet bill.Great Product!!!

Best universal ear cleaner for my critters
I’ve gotta say, finding Zymox for my bunch of pets has been a total game changer. It’s the one ear cleaner that’s actually as easy to use as it claims. You just drop it in their ears, no pre-cleaning drama, and boom, you’re done. This is a big win for any pet owner who’s had to wrestle their pet just to keep them still for ear cleaning.Now, let’s talk about how well this stuff works. It’s got this enzyme system that’s basically like magic for knocking out ear infections and all that nasty stuff. It’s gentle yet super effective, which is a relief because I’m not about using harsh chemicals on my critters. Whether it’s my dog, cat, or the more unusual pets, Zymox handles it all. It’s the Swiss Army knife of ear cleaners.I also love that it’s safe and doesn’t irritate their ears. It’s nice knowing I’m not causing them any discomfort while trying to help them out. Plus, it saves me from buying different products for each pet, which is awesome for my wallet.In short, Zymox has been a lifesaver. It’s easy, works like a charm, and it’s gentle on my pets. For anyone struggling with pet ear problems, I can’t recommend it enough. It’s seriously made my life and my pets’ lives so much better.

Works excellent!
My very floppy eared beagle flipped over her ear and to my horror it was torn up; red, swollen & very irritated. She obviously had an infection and had been scratching at it. I felt terrible I didn’t notice it sooner. I bought the zymox otic because it’s a cleaner and treatment all in one and has hydrocortisone which I knew she needed badly to bring down the swelling from scratching at it. The medicine is a clear watery gel, something I wasn’t expecting. I thought it would just be liquid. The gel works great though because it suspends in place so you can really get to every little fold and crevice inside the dogs ear. I started with the outside of the ear cleaning as I went with cotton balls. Once I had all the little pieces of scab cleaned up I went for the ear canal. It says to fill the ear canal with medicine and then wipe away. I filled it and then massaged the ear to make sure it went deep enough. I then tilted the dogs head the other direction and let it drain out and wipe wipe wipe. The next morning was a big difference!! It was looking a lot better. I was still nervous though what if it didn’t work. When we woke up the 3rd morning I checked her ear and it looked so good I had to do a double take to make sure I had the right ear. I can’t recommend this medicine enough. We are continuing treat. It says 7-14 days but looking at these results I think a week will be plenty. I just wanted to leave this review to help other dog and cat parents. This medicine treats fungal and bacterial infections using 3 types of enzymes so you are good to go using this either way. I highly recommend! Worth every penny!Update* after reading some of the 1 star reviews I just wanted to add that it is always best to have your animal evaluated by a veterinarian. Some animals may need an antibiotics to treat an ear infection and this treatment may not be enough. Also if you see that your animal is suffering from any adverse reactions it is best to stop the medicine and have them evaluated medically immediately. Just like with humans, some medicines can have side effects that can be severe. Not all medicines work for everybody or everything 100% of the time. People and animals alike can be allergic to certain ingredients. It is best to closely monitor your animal whenever they are taking a new medication whether prescribed by a vet or bought over the counter and even when it’s something as simple as a topical medication. This medication worked great for my pet but I do check my dogs ears weekly because she’s a floppy eared breed. More than likely I caught the infection very early when she was symptomatic for only a couple of days. This may have contributed to how successful the results were for my dog. On day 4 now and all symptoms are gone, however I will continue to monitor the ear for up to 4 weeks to make sure the infection doesn’t reoccur. I’m very sorry to the pet owners who had adverse reactions to this medicine and that you didn’t share the same experience myself and many others had with this efficacy of how well this product worked. Your reviews are the reason that I felt it necessary to remind people that medical intervention first is always best.

Worked beautifully
6-month pitbull: she hasn’t had issue up until now and i have had her since she was 8-weeks (rescue). Noticed her messing with her ears and shaking her head a lot – cue this formula. Took care of it within the seven days it directed to use it. No smell and it is viscous so it stays in those ears no matter how they shake and toss their little head. I will be keeping this on hand. A very good experience and product.

I have 2 small dogs with periodic ear problems. This does a good job treating their occasional ear soreness and does not required that their ears be cleaned before administering it. It isn’t cheap, but it does a good job.

Awesome! The best ever!!!
Didn’t really seem to have a smell. My dog kept tugging at his ear and this stuff took care of whatever it was immediately.What’s not to love? It saved the cost of a vet trip, was relatively inexpensive, it worked really, really well, and most online places want you to have a vet prescription to buy (which I don’t understand) but not here.I ordered it for overnight delivery for a few bucks more (my dog is worth it!). It was there early in the AM so he got relief faster than if we waited for a vet appointment.

The best thing ever
I have a mix breed chihuahua and for the past few months he has been smelling and I thought it was his skin so I gave him baths weekly but he still smelled. I figured out it was ear since he was always shaking his head and scratching his ear so I bought this and holy moly it works wonders.The first day I filled his ear canal with this stuff in the bathtub he shook his head and all this gunk came out. Day 2 some more gunk and by 3 day the gunk would just be on his outer ear where I used a napkin to wipe clean. Repeated it for day 4-7 and by day 8 I stopped using it because his ears were clean and he stopped scratching his ear. He’s now super happy :)I now only use wipes to clean his ear! Thank you to the creator of this product

Finally found something for my cat!
My cat had neverending ear mites – I couldn’t get rid of them and he hated the drops from the vet. These worked and he didn’t mind the oil as much!!Here are a couple tips:-to make it more comfortable for my cat’s ears (and easier/faster to drop in) I would put the container in my pocket for a bit beforehand (maybe an hour) to warm it up to body temp for him :)-as they say, don’t clean your pet’s ears beforehand, you want to kill the mites and dissolve all the crud, etc.My cat always shakes his head afterwards – and it also drips out as he sleeps. Gross. So: -don’t overfill the ear -remember to massage it into the eardrum -wipe excess…-I was able to get it out of my couch cushions with dish soap, it worked better than the usual stain spray I use.-I saw a change within 3 days, his ears looked cleaner, they were also no longer hot to the touch and seemed less sensitive to him, as he no longer cared as much when I gave him the drops.Totally worth it – glad I bought this one!

THIS STUFF WORKS!!!!!!!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
My German shepherd/malinois pup (2 yrs old) was giving all the signs of an irritated ear; constant scratching, head tilted, ear folded back, head shaking. I googled “ear drops for ear mites and irritation” and this stuff appeared. Once it arrived I applied it to the affected ear. The consistency is similar to table syrup so once it made contact with his inner ear, it was easy to massage into his ears. After the 2nd day, there were noticeable improvements and after day 3, he stopped doing all of the signs I mentioned in the first line! The directions say to apply for 7 days and I am currently on day 5. As of today, he no longer has the rough, red, irritated inner ear surface! Did I mention this is way cheaper than prescribed ear drops!!!!
